Watch Paul Robinson Explore Cederberg Boulders

Paul Robinson has been opening countless new problems in South Africa over the past few seasons.

It’s rad to have someone who is just as stoked to walk into the unknown and find undiscovered boulders with! Here is a shot of @fernandojimenez_ doing exactly that on his recent first ascent of, “minnows,” V7/7A+. Thanks for getting out there with me and believing that there is more in South Africa than Rocklands. ? #bouldering

“The development in the past few weeks in the Cederberg has been insane,” said Robinson.

“Katerina flew home for her graduation and my buddy Fernando flew in to check out the new stuff in the area. We have been hiking a ton and finding incredible new lines on a near daily basis.”

In 2010, Robinson made the first ascent of Lucid Dreaming, a highball bouldering problem in the Buttermilks.

He originally proposed a grade of V16, the hardest problem to date, but he later suggested Lucid Dreaming might be a V15. The 17-metre highball problem was not repeated until January 2014.
